The Collector, by Victoria Scott

Goodreads Summary: "Dante Walker is flippin’ awesome, and he knows it. His good looks, killer charm, and stellar confidence have made him one of hell’s best—a soul collector. His job is simple: weed through humanity and label those round rears with a big red good or bad stamp. Old Saint Nick gets the good guys, and he gets the fun ones. Bag-and-tag.

Sealing souls is nothing personal. Dante’s an equal-opportunity collector and doesn't want it any other way. But he’ll have to adjust, because Boss Man has given him a new assignment:

Collect Charlie Cooper’s soul within ten days.

Dante doesn't know why Boss Man wants Charlie, nor does he care. This assignment means only one thing to him, and that’s a permanent ticket out of hell. But after Dante meets the quirky Nerd Alert chick he’s come to collect, he realizes this assignment will test his abilities as a collector…and uncover emotions deeply buried."

Review:

I knew it from the beginning that this book wouldn't be so good and I was right. It wasn't super enjoyable, but you know, I could stand it.

I hated Dante. Ugh. I didn't see anything "flippin' awesome" about him and I needed him to be a better character. He's one of the reasons why I don't want to continue reading this series anymore. He was a snob, and I felt that he didn't deserve any girls or basically anything, whatsoever.

I wish that the events were a little more wild and interesting. The whole story itself was cheesy and predictable, and adding in one not so handsome male character in the club wasn't the best thing either.

Charlie was a better character than Dante. She had a total different sense of personality and realistic qualities, and she's the reason why this book got a better rating than without her.I liked her a lot and I thought that she deserved better than what's his name, Dante.
